Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Just bitching about my unproductive day. Me and Jenkies decide today is that day to put my new intercooler and dump pipe on. Front bar comes off easy as, no problems. Bit of trouble trying to get the stock cooler off.

Decide to have a break before we take it off. glance over to my intercooler box, peel back a bit of packing tape and see "R33 Kit". well now, thats not what i ordered?

so anyway, put everything back together, make sure all bolts are on. ok time for dump pipe.

or, not.

nuts have seized, no chance in hell of getting them off.

so for just under 5 hours of labour, we accomplised:

- found one nut on the cat was really loose, tightened.

- removed thermo fan so cooler core will fit.

lesson for today. pay someone to do it for you.

I'm pretty sure that R32/33/34 intercooler kits are interchangeable as most of them use the factory hot pipe side of the piping and for the cold side you have to cut a hole so there won't be a problem there with lining up as well. Better pull it all back off again.

Might just take it to an exhaust shop and get them to fit it for me. That way i know if they snap a bolt, they fix it. I on the otehr hand, dont have the tools to fix anything major.

no dont coz they will make u pay for the snapped stud.

i have tried that wen i wanted my screamer on and they said nothing about it n i mentioned that sum of the nuts mite be tight n they said if it snaps it not there fault and u have to pay to get it removed.

and if nothing is mentioned about it they will still make u pay! it sucks but they class it as not there fault because they are just doing wat you asked them to do.

Yeah but the mounting brackets that were supplied wont fit.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      So if I was to spend 400r money and remember I am only here because I need 4 doors because of an incoming kid otherwise I would be looking at a lexus RCF what am I loosing out on other than fuel economy but gaining in power and space / V8 sound on Chrysler 300c STR Vs nissan 400r?, I will admit that buying the VE bomadore was an eye opener into build quality compared to Jap cars... https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2020-chrysler-300-srt-core-auto-my20/SSE-AD-18201088/ but this one is on the same money...

      Disposing of shocks/struts?

      By Aggroman · Posted

      If you're friendly with a workshop that has a large scraps bin you can always ask to dispose of there. Otherwise theres always the places like sims metal etc depending where you are at https://recyclingnearyou.com.au/cars
